Over in Laredo, they do an annual jalapeño festival. They actually have a Miss Jalapeño and hopefully she is as spicy as the food. The reason everyone comes to this festival is for the jalapeño eating contest. I love jalapeños, but I don't know if I could woof them down like these people do.

This year's winner was Molly Schuyler and she ate a whopping 265 jalapeños. She walked away with $3,000 and the 2018 championship trophy. Molly came SO close to breaking the record for jalapeños eaten in fifteen minutes. The record was 266 held by Patrick “Deep Dish” Bertoletti. Just one off for my girl Molly. "The glory only goes to the selfless public restrooms I ran to afterwards," Molly said in a post on her Facebook page.
